Voigtlander& Sohn Bergheil Deluxe

The Voigtländer Bergheil Deluxe is a folding plate camera, a higher-specification variant of the standard Bergheil distinguished by its green leather covering. It was produced in the interwar period and positioned at enthusiast and professional users who wanted a compact, bellows-based field camera.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Bergheil Deluxe have spanned roughly £100 to £1,300, with a median result around £500 across the recorded sales. The wide range reflects strong condition-sensitivity: in today's market the value of any given example depends heavily on the lens fitted, the state of the bellows and covering, and whether original plate holders and case are present — so what one sells for can differ sharply from what another is worth.
